This bridge on the B6318 over the Cam Beck was closed for 18 weeks for major repairs at the time of my visit. No provision had been made for pedestrians and cyclists to cross the stream here, although some of the houses in Kirkcambeck village lie on the south side of the bridge. The shortest way round by road is nearly 20 km; the official signed diversion was a great deal further.
